When asked about the reason for the delay. Daniel Nowak. assistant vice-president for student affairs, denied that there had been any official deadline set. He said that yesterday was only an informal “working deadline.”

The program will include speakers, films, discussion and practical exercises, said Mitchell.
Dan Smith, founder and former director of the Community Action Coordinating Council./irst director of the Norman Topping Student Aid Fund and chief architect of the programming board concept, will conduct the program under the auspices of the CACC’s Volunteer Placement Service.
"Participants will be selected by interview according to their college ambitions, prior leadership experience, creativity and willingness to confront student and urban problems in a significant way,” he said.
Applications are available at the CACC office (Student Union 312F), the Student Activities Center, the Birnkrant desk and the Marks Tower desk.
Coed found fatally shot near border of Arizona
By Rich Wiseman
editor
Sue Schuler, a senior education major, has been found shot to death at the end of a lonely road among sand dunes 45 miles east of El Centro.
The police have no solid leads at this time.
The 21-year-old coed’s body —clad only in a green turtleneck sweater and a towel tied around the waist—was found Monday at 12:30 p.m. by youths camping in the area. Positive identification was not made until 10 p.m. Tuesday by investigators of the Imperial County Sheriffs Dept.
A postmortem examination revealed that she died from a small-cal iber bullet that pierced her heart. She had not been sexually molested.
It was estimated that the murder occurred between 10 p.m. and midnight Sunday.
There was no evidence of a struggle, said Sgt. James Moore, one of the first investigators on the scene. “Her hair was pulled back in a tight bun; not a strand was out of place,” he said.
Footprints found
Moore said pictures were snapped of footprints found at the scene before the desert wind swept them away. “We’ve checked out a number of possible suspects, all negative,” he said. “W’e’re following a couple more lines but they don’t seem promising.
"Our best bet is finding the victim’s car.”
Miss Schuler was reported
missing Monday morning by her father. William Schuler. She was last seen leaving her parents’ home in Ladera Heights at 5:50 p.m. Sunday to return to her campus apartment. She was driving a pale green 1969 Cougar with license plate ZNX 643.
A nationwide bulletin has been issued, and the Highway Patrol and sheriff s departments in California, Arizona, New Mexico. Nevada, Utah and Texas are on the lookout for the car.
“As the direction of the vehicle was obviously southeast we have reason to believe the car is no longer in the state,” Moore said. Miss Schuler’s body was found 15 miles from the Arizona border.
Motive unknown
Investigators would not venture an opinion on the motive behind her murder. Miss Schuler’s purse was not beside her but her two rings—one opal, one pearl—remained on her fingers. Her jewelry helped in her identification.
Friends of the freckle-faced, auburn-haired coed said it was unusual if she made any stops during the 15 minutes it would take to drive from her home to USC, eight miles away—whether to pick up a hitchhiker or go to the market.
“She realized what area she was driving in,” said Sandy Ban-ducci. a junior in journalism and a friend, referring to the fact that the route winds through a relatively high-crime district.
SUE SCHULER
“When I drove with her we always kept the door locked.” Banducci added that Miss Schuler’s parents had been very worried about the USC neighborhood and had only permitted their daughter to move into an apartment this year.
“I've never been frightened of this area before,” she said. "But I will never walk alone around here again.”
Miss Schuler, described as a conscientious student, had been student teaching this semester at Amestoy Elementary School in Gardena. At Inglewood High School she had been active in clubs and student politics. She would have received her B.S. in education in June.

Ex Coll teacher expounds on experiences of drugs
By Betty Cuniberti
"In no uncertain terms. I let them know how good heroin feels. The rush has been compared to an orgasm multiplied ten times. It’s the finest feeling known to man,” said Norman Friedman, reviewing his last week’s lecture.
Friedman, self-described as “the type of person my mother told me not to associate with,” teaches the Experimental College class Drugs for Fun and Profit and Hopefully Education.
The class, held Thursday nights at 7:30 p.m. in Von KleinSmid Center 260. comes complete with lectures, discussions, field trips and guest speakers.
Friedman is a member of the Do It Now Foundation, which is concerned with drug education of the community. The foundation is not antidrug. but rather is concerned with drug survival.
“A kid will call us up to find out how to clean needles.” Friedman said. “We’ll tell him to use the bristles from a fine hairbrush and how to use a flame. We won't preach to him.”
The foundation also runs a telephone hot line, a speakers bureau and a per-
sonal counseling office manned by down-to-earth people.
“It’s basically a freak show,” said Friedman. “In order to have any credibility it has to be a freak show. Some of the workers have used drugs and some haven’t. But there’s no rah-rah college social workers.”
Friedman also does the Do It Now Dope Report on radio station KLOS following the 6 p.m. news.
Imagination helps “I give out information about current drugs on the street, and a lot of it comes from my imagination. I’m doing it to have a good time.” Friedman has worked at such jobs as driving trucks, digging lawns, acting and selling clothes in fine men’s stores, and he hopes in the future to teach an accredited course in drugs.
Although Friedman is quite serious about his class, he thoroughly enjoys teaching it. “The best thing about teaching this course is that I get to drive around faculty parking lots with a faculty parking sticker. I've always wanted to do that." he said.
Friedman looks more like someone who would take the course than someone who would teach it.
The 25-year-old teacher explained. “The last haircut I had was last Halloween when I went to a party as myself eight years ago.”
He used highly personal methods of teaching as he began to go over the previous week’s lecture on heroin.
“Junk by itself isn’t that harmful,” he told students. “I’ve known junkies to get along for many years without too many physical problems.” “However, socially, junk becomes a life style,” he explained.
“Our whole society is based on seeking pleasure and relieving pain. Once you’ve found something like junk that can make you feel so good, it’s hard to just forget about it. It’s like having sex and sayingyou’re never going to do it again.”
Friedman said one of the difficulties with heroin is its different potencies in different places.
“In Los Angeles, junk is pure, and in New York it runs from five to seven percent,” he said. “You run into trouble when an L.A. user will go to Vietnam and use the stuff over there which is sometimes 95 to 100 percent pure.
“In large quantities the shock would be too much for the heart to take."
Friedman explained that addiction occurs “when your body gets used to any drug in such a way that it will e*xperi-ence unfavorable effects by not having the drug. When withdrawal symptoms occur, there is addiction.
“It’s like Sunday morning brunch,” he said. “If you’re used to lox and bagels you'll get hunger pains for them every Sunday morning.”
Drug abuse
Friedman said that if a person uses a drug properly he will be able to handle the situation he is in at all times while on the drug.
“Drug abuse happens when they can’t handle themselves or their situation while on the drug. When they can’t make the choice as to whether or not they want to take it, they’re abusing it. A junkie ripping off a color TV to support his habit is an example of drug abuse,” he said.
Review of the previous week’s class also included a few highlights from a talk on hallucinogens given by a guest speaker.
"There are several berries growing wild at Disneyland that can be used as hallucinogens.” Friedman said. "Two of the most prominent can be found in Fantasy-land.”
Friedman then went on to the present week's topic of uppers.
“A lot of people use speed.” he said, "housewives, truck-drivers, students, many people.
“You can always tell when a person is on speed. They can t stop running around. They’ll clean the house, they’ll wash every dish in the place, they’ll polish all the silverware, and then they'll pick up the phone and talk to a friend for two hours straight before they realize the friend never answered the phone,” Friedman explained.
One of the students told of one of her experiences with uppers. "I took 10 uppers one day and became terribly depressed. I cried for 5 hours and called up my friends,” she said.
Friedman identified her experience as a typical one, and said that for almost everyone, taking speed is fun at first.
"You feel so elevated. You can get a lot of things done. The hassle is when you don't stop and let your body function normally for a while,” he said.
“Your body is only made to function so fast for so long. Continual use of speed can
